Abstract

This shadow report broadly summarizes recent working-class experiences in Indiana resulting from policies and activities of political and business elites. These activities include: broad denials of workers’ rights; efforts to suppress voting rights; policies and practices undermining and dismantling public education; and practices facilitating mass incarceration of Black and Latino residents of Indiana.
